BATTERY PACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18537091 titled 'BATTERY PACK
Simplified Explanation
The patent application discusses a battery pack with a heating or heat dissipating component to maintain temperature within a certain range. The pack includes an upper end cover, first and second metal panels, a holder, and a lower end cover.
- The battery pack includes an upper end cover to protect the inside of the pack.
- A first metal panel is positioned below the upper end cover and jointed to the upper portion of the cylindrical cells.
- A second metal panel is jointed to the lower portion of the cylindrical cells.
- A holder surrounds and fixes the outer side surface of the cylindrical cells and the lower portion of the second metal panel.
- A lower end cover is positioned below the second metal panel and the holder to form a lower end portion of the battery pack.
